   44: questionable accent


YouTube surfing led me to a clip of the Flying Dutchman and The Sarong Party Girl in a sorta heated debate. Glanced through the comments to find that people were more aggravated by the fake/false/pseudo accents as opposed to the points brought across. So I clicked to see if the accent was really that jarring that it drowns out any sense of logic and rationale.

Have to admit that I agree with them. Some of her words were pronounced classically as how a S.E Asian would say it and then she shoves in some slang here and there to toss it up like a Caesar salad. Couldn't really bare watching the whole thing though. Even XX sounded decent and palatable.

Though who am I to complain really. An unmistakably odd accent (not sure if it's American or Australian but I've been told it's a combination of both. seriously, whaaaaat?) appears when I'm just-about plastered. It's really funny. Maybe that's how I slur when I'm intoxicated. Hmm.
